Bulletin: NDIS and Mental Health: A Queensland Snapshot

In December 2016, the Health Advocate published an article co-authored by QAMH CEO Kris Trott and Mental Illness Fellowship of North Queensland CEO Jeremy Audas.

In the article NDIS and Mental Health: A Queensland Snapshot, the authors argue that the NDIS was not originally designed to meet the needs people who experience mental health issues, their family and carers, and discuss the issues that are now arising as a result.

They further discuss the issues service providers are experiencing as they enter into a service-focussed delivery model.
